What else can I help you with?
Why can't you see stars in the day time?
Rayleigh scattering. This is the phenomenon that take light from the Sun and scatters it all over the sky. That's why the sky is blue, and it's the blue glare from the sky that drowns out all the stars. If you were in a location where scattered light from the sky didn't reach your eyes, then you WOULD be able to see the stars. For example, in a cave with a small opening to the sky, or a deep well or mine shaft.

Why is the night sky over an African Savanna brighter than a city sky?
because there is so much 'light pollution' (light) in a city that it washes the sky of the light, wheras in a savanna region its wilderness and no artificial light, so you can see the full natural light (and all the stars) of the sky.
Do we see stars in the sky because they reflect the sun's light?
No. The stars are distant suns that emit their own light.
Why does the Olbers paradox suggest that the night sky is dark despite the countless number of stars in the universe?
The Olbers paradox suggests that the night sky is dark despite the countless number of stars in the universe because the light from distant stars may not have reached us yet, or it may have been absorbed or scattered by dust and gas in space. This means that not all the light from all the stars in the universe reaches Earth, resulting in a dark night sky.
What makes the sea of stars glow in the night sky?
The sea of stars glows in the night sky due to the light emitted by distant stars and galaxies. This light travels through space and reaches our eyes, creating the beautiful spectacle we see in the night sky.
What is the difference between planets and stars in the night sky?
Stars give off light whereas planets reflect light.
Why do stars light up the sky?
Stars generate light by nuclear fusion. That happens in their cores, but the outer layers glow with it.
Why do you see stars in the night sky?
Stars are visible in the night sky because they emit light that travels through space and reaches our eyes on Earth. The light from stars is so bright that we can see them even from great distances.
What displays a light in the sky?
The Sun, other stars and the Moon.
What can light pollution do?
it can rid the stars and the nice dark sky
The stars that you see in the sky depend on?
The stars you see in the sky depend on the time of year and your location on Earth. The brightness of the stars, the presence of any natural or artificial light pollution, and atmospheric conditions also influence the visibility of stars in the sky.
